What are you scanning them into?

You can change their size in an image manipulation program ( Photoshop type) or you can scan them at a percentage of their original size.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Shrunk to 600 pixels across.

Here they are. If you export them as .jpeg you can cut down on their quality and still show them but save space and time uploading.

For line drawings you really want to avoid jpeg and stick with GIF or some other lossless compression. You can often get as good or better compression and you don't get the artifacts around the lines.

I meant for general pictures for web publication really. The ones on there are .bmp, check the properties. Look round on Google for scanning tips. This one came up.

It goes into great detail on lots of different subjects.

Crbrlfrost,the pictured sketch was an early drawing and i intended tu use a sway bar.The comments, especially from Rorty,made me think again and perhaps it's not such a bad idea to go for a live axle without a diff on such a light car.
It surely would simplify things but the monoshock idea would'nt work on this i think.Since i use a chain to drive the rear axle the suspension can be a simple craddle like construction on which the rear axle is bolted.This craddle can move up and down with only a slight variation in distance decrease towards the engine sprocket.A Panhard rod will keep things more or less centered.
Dont know if it work's but gonna give it a try anyhow.
